A question for the new year - becoming a "legend"

I'm starting this post with a sad tone, but there's an inspiring message I want to get across.

Ready? Let's dive in...
 
I wrote recently about my friend Craig who passed away.

I’ve been thinking about how I can honour his memory, and how best to use the lessons he taught me.
 
Craig and I were both part of Live Your Legend, a community set up to help people find work they love.
 
(If you haven’t heard of it, I’d highly recommend checking it out!)
 
It struck me that the best way to honour Craig is to live my legend this year (and beyond).

What does that mean?
  
Well, for me, it means:
 

• Being a bit braver, and pushing myself more than I usually do.
  
  
• Working harder on my business than I ever have before (I’m lucky that I really enjoy what I do... so why don’t I make the most of this?!)
  
  
• Being organized, and communicating frequently with my husband, so I have dedicated slots for business, relaxation, and family time.
  
  
• Being kind to myself and letting myself make mistakes, knowing that they’re contributing to my growth.
  
  
• Being a role model for others, and helping others with their journey.

 
Now, “living your legend” doesn’t mean making every second of every day productive, or becoming a super-human version of yourself.
 
It just means taking bold steps, when you can.
 
It means grabbing an opportunity that scares you, when your head says no but your heart says yes.
 
It means keeping your heroes and role models in mind: What would they do? What would they advise you to do?
 
I can’t bring Craig back (although I would give anything to do so).
 
But I can do everything in my power to live my legend, as is right for me.
 
Now over to you...  

• What does “living your legend” look like?
  
  
• If you made a few key changes this year that produced big results, what would those changes be?

 
And finally, if you don’t have a community around you to support you and help you grow... go find your tribe!

It’s the BEST way I've found to progress towards a life that's right for you.
 
Hoping you had a wonderful holiday, and here’s to an awesome, legendary 2020 :)
